The Development department has created a Wish List of items needed for for educational and public programs, grounds maintenance, and curatorial preservation. You can make a designated donation toward any of the items on the list and watch the item’s progress towards purchase. You may also donate a new or gently used item on the Wish List. To make a financial donation, to donate an item on the list, or if you’d like to donate an item not on the Wish List that you think will be beneficial to Salisbury House and Gardens, please contact Shelly Jordan, at 515.274.1777x1002 or by email at sjordan@salisburyhouse.org. Because of our gift acceptance policy, non-monetary donations must be reviewed by SHF staff before acceptance.
